Hi JH, This statement has been bothering me since it suggests I have the wrong idea the difference between exclusive and inclusive measurements. With the spectrometer arms we can determe the particle type and momentum: I would consider that to be an "exclusive" measurement since we know everything there is to know. This is in contrast with, for example, the si and tile detectors where we only and deduce the number of particles--what I would consider to be an inclusive measurement. In this context, I think the wording in the draft if correct. Or, are you taking issue with the admittedly abbreviated use of "magnetic spectrometers" to stand for "magnetic spectrometers with Cherenkov and time-of-flight paritcle identification"?
